A novel disease mechanism leading to the expression of a disallowed gene in the pancreatic beta-cell identified by non-coding, regulatory mutations controlling <i>HK1</i>
2021-12-05
Abstract excerpt
Gene expression is tightly regulated with many genes exhibiting cell-specific silencing when their protein product would disrupt normal cellular function. This silencing is largely controlled by non-coding elements and their disruption might cause human disease. We performed gene-agnostic screening of the non-coding regions to discover new molecular causes of congenital hyperinsulinism. This identified 14 non-codi...
